VIDEO: International workshop To get there: designing together at the Centre Pompidou, Paris

Theme:The designer’s view of the living museum – collections, works, site and missions.

In the context of the Paris 2018 Cumulus Conference hosted by the Césaap partnership of the four Parisian schools of Art & Design – Boulle, Duperré, Estienne and Ensaama – an international transdisciplinary workshop was proposed to students from colleges affiliated to Cumulus.

The workshop offered young designers the possibility of working in teams on subjects linked to the living museum as embodied by the Centre Pompidou. The students were invited to approach the works, the collections, the site, and the missions of the museum with a designer’s eye.

This was a real opportunity for in situ transdisciplinary work in the context of an international learning exchange. The project was supervised by a team of teachers from the four Parisian schools and coordinated by Jérôme Picard from the Norwegian architecture agency 3RW. It also benefited from the support and equipment of the curatorial and cultural communication departments of the Centre Pompidou.
